hy waste your time? Surely you know by now Rangers have never had a justified penalty in their history, all Celtic's are fair game, and the refs cook up all the decisions at their lodge meetings?

'Twas ever the same. When I was a kid in the '60s the story went,

"What was the Rangers score?"
'0-0'
"Who missed the penalty?"

I can see he’s in the box. First angle is inconclusive, but once he’s basically caught the ball he’s in the box 100%.

Why waste your time? Surely you know by now Rangers have never had a justified penalty in their history, all Celtic's are fair game, and the refs cook up all the decisions at their lodge meetings?

I quite enjoy finding out others’ views on the issues.

Basically in that game, Rangers should’ve had 4 penalties and they got 4 penalties. Yet it’s some sort of conspiracy that took up at least a half hour of National radio that I heard

But you know their views beforehand. Always the opposing, anti Rangers view.

The flags! The singing! The penalties! The refs!

you forgot the EBTs

I wonder if the Rangers fans (note: lower case 't') wonder why it is that fans of virtually all the other Scottish clubs dislike Rangers intensely?

Come on now, you know how the song goes.

No one likes us...

I don’t think they do, tbh. Fairly obvious with a few seconds thought in any case.

That's subjective. In my view (so also subjective), a large proportion of non-Old Firm fans intensely dislike Rangers.

For clarity: I’m saying that I don’t think Rangers fans generally wonder why they are disliked.

Well that would be verging on bigotry.

But then we all know there's only one sort of bigotry that counts.

That's not bigoted at all. Unlike you and your buddy above. Chillax.

I’m no bigot. I’ve no idea why you think I am. Care to enlighten me?

That makes two of us, I always wonder why people automatically assume that if you support Glasgow Rangers like I do you are automatically classed as a fully paid up member of the Lodge.

I think it might be a deflection from their own petty prejudice. I've said it before that this forum is dead unless there is a story about Rangers. The same people with the same bile, you would think that you'd want to discuss your own team(s) performances.

I personally don't have an opinion on other clubs and certainly don't trawl the media looking to write drivel. Try it it might work for you.

Several reasons over the years, but I really don't want to chat about all that nonsense. Let's stick to the football here.

I bet you don’t want to chat about it.

You’ve assumed fellow PHers are bigots because they are a Rangers fan, then you get called out on it, and go all shy.

You’ve assumed I’m a bigot simply because you don’t like Rangers fans.

I’m sure you can see what that makes you look like.

Seriously? You know my views on bigotry.

I have plenty friends who are Rangers supporters and who are not bigoted so that's two of your theories out of the window.

But posts like the below one are uneccessary... I’m sure you can see what that makes you look like.

If that's all it takes for you to get all offended it's no wonder you're not exactly converting people to your point of view.

”Why every racist mentions their black friend”


I’m laughing at the amusing coincidental presence of 1690 on the shirt numbers photo. That doesn’t make me a bigot, does it? It kinda looks like you’re clutching at straws and desperate to support your baseless assumptions.
